Sleepwalking

Went sleepwalking in the village
Traced the city in our image
Till I realized it was sunrise
And I hadn't checked you

Cuz the ice cream shop got busy
And the flowers stands were pretty
And for the first time in forever
I could think of someone new

And I prayed it wasn't just a dream
Awaking from six months of
Questioning and grief

Can I replace the broken parts of me?
Sleepwalking through the city
Under neon lights are pretty
Drunk on lovely lies in strangers eyes
Till the sunrise sets me free

Went sleepwalking in the village
Waited for you by the same bridge
Where you said you'd come to meet me
Once you had your time and space

I remembered when you told me
That you'd always love and hold me
And by the faint first light of morning
Tears fell softly down my face

And I prayed for it to be a dream
Erasing our once epic love
I went numb in disbelief

And I chased the stolen parts of me
Sleepwalking through the city
Under neon lights light so pretty
Drunk on lovely lies in strangers eyes
Till the sunrise sets me free

And I miss the blissful slumber
Of the nights we spent together
Cuz nowadays it takes
2 pills at 9 PM to put me down again

And I'm drinking all my feelings
But I sweat them out freewheeling
(Drink, drink)
On a bike that takes me nowhere
Red eyes and cotton mouth
It drains my bank account

Still I really hope you get it
Cuz you sure made me regret it
And you'll run your grift on other men
Before they've found you out

(Cuz there's a reason why you're 29 and don't have any old friends
if you know what I mean...)

Cuz your eyes are blue and sweet
And you're so good at talking
You politely pilfer all their hard-earned dreams
Skip town, send them out
Sleepwalking

I think I'm ready...

Sometimes I pout and walk about
Then trip and think of you
(Wake up)
So I tip a handsome subway singer
Who almost looks like you

(I still love you
I'll always love you)

Sometimes I pout and walk about
Then trip and think of you
So I tip a handsome subway singer
Who almost looks like you

Set me free
